石墨烯和碳纳米管中载流子的瞬态Zitterbewegung

Transient Zitterbewegung of charge carriers in graphene and carbon nanotubes

Tomasz M. Rusin, Wlodek Zawadzki

摘要:

计算了双层石墨烯、单层石墨烯和碳纳米管中载流子的振动效应。结果表明,当载流子以高斯波包的形式存在时,ZB具有瞬态特性,其衰减时间在石墨烯中为飞秒,在纳米管中为皮秒.双层石墨烯的分析结果使我们能够研究伴随着颤抖运动的现象。特别是,它示出了在石墨烯中的ZB的瞬态特性是由于这样的事实,即与正电子能量和负电子能量相关的波子包在相反的方向上移动,因此它们的重叠随着时间的推移而减小。这种行为类似于真空中代表相对论电子的波包。

英文摘要:

Observable effects due to trembling motion (Zitterbewegung, ZB) of charge carriers in bilayer graphene, monolayer graphene and carbon nanotubes are calculated. It is shown that, when the charge carriers are prepared in the form of gaussian wave packets, the ZB has a transient character with the decay time of femtoseconds in graphene and picoseconds in nanotubes. Analytical results for bilayer graphene allow us to investigate phenomena which accompany the trembling motion. In particular, it is shown that the transient character of ZB in graphene is due to the fact that wave subpackets related to positive and negative electron energies move in opposite directions, so their overlap diminishes with time. This behavior is analogous to that of the wave packets representing relativistic electrons in a vacuum.
